I don't know if Timing or they just waited to have his first good game since that Edmonton game early this season.
Also If they waited for Price to get a win with good % would be hilarious.

But I guess it's just weird timing , still doesn't make any sense to not fire Richardson and Bergevin or Timmins at this point might as well fire the rest

imagine firing Julien, Muller and Waite before Timmins.
Trevor Timmins has something on Molson and maybe even Bergevin. There is absolutely no way a guy with a record like that doesnt get fired and promoted instead. We need to start a GoFundMe page to hire a private detective to look into that and sue Timmins for blackmailing once we find the reason.

There is no "interim" tag attached to his title.

No, but director isn't "coach" either.

I think he won't be this hands on forever. As the Lebrun tweet suggested, he's on the look for exec roles.

He could always be in line to be an assistant GM or someone like Mellanby is poached. He seems to have gotten interest.

This entire thing is a little weird, no? When is the last time the Habs announced a firing at 11:15 pm? They couldn't wait till morning?

Price did extra work with Waite the last 2 practices. I know cause TSN showed it and made it a story. Why would Price work with Waite if he had enough of his "teaching"? Cause they didn't fire Price's guy without Price wanting or at least knowing about it first. This is odd, there has to be more to the story.

"Pricer, if you have something to say to Waite, better say it now..."

It's shocking but the right move. Price was getting worse and worse and no solutions in sight. I cannot believe we have 8 more years of that. What a ridiculous contract. I knew it at the time too although I didn't think the drop would be this fast.
